Key Stats
Bayern head into this match on a winning run of six matches. But more impressive for the Bavarians is the fact that they have not conceded in that run. Indeed the last time Bayern conceded was in their last Champions League outing – a 4-1 humbling at Barcelona.
PSG aren’t doing so bad, either, winning four and losing one of their last five matches in all competitions. The slight issue is that one loss has come in the Champions League, where the French champions have struggled for form with just one win in four matches so far.
Team News
PSG have Marquinhos back in the squad after he served a domestic suspension for accumulated yellow cards. Les Parisiens also got the boost of Presnel Kimpembe returning to training after almost two years out with a severe achilles injury.
Bayern on their part have no new injury worries, and will be hoping that striker, Harry Kane, can continue his scoring form against PSG.
